A method of detecting race conditions in a service based communication architecture network (600) comprising a Message Broker, MB, function (210) mediating messages, relating to service procedures, between one or more services available to a User Equipment, UE, (11) communicating within the service based communication architecture network (600). The method comprising receiving, by the MB (210), from the services, a message relating to at least one of start and end of a service procedure. Determining, by the MB (210), based on the received message, that the service procedure causes a race condition, and intervening, upon detection of a race condition, in executing the service procedures. There is also provided a Message Broker, MB, function (210) arranged for detecting and handling race conditions, a communication network (600) comprising an integrated message broker and race condition handler (210) and a computer program product.

A mobile accelerator system includes point of presences (POPs) that includes an entry POP. The entry POP receives a query to a content server from a mobile device via a dedicated transport channel. The entry POP determines a direct connection score for a direct connection between the mobile device and the content server that does not traverse the mobile accelerator system. The entry POP determines a POP connection score for a connection between the mobile device and the content server through the entry POP and a candidate exit POP. The entry POP determines a dynamic path ranking based on the direct connection score, the POP connection score, and other POP connection score(s) associated with other candidate exit POP(s). The entry POP determines at least a portion of a dynamic path between the mobile device based on the dynamic path ranking and routes data transfers through that dynamic path.

An electronic device and method are disclosed. The electronic device operates in an edge computing environment, and includes: a memory storing an application, a wireless communication circuitry, and at least one processor. The at least one processor implements the method, including: receiving a query message querying whether application relocation is possible from an external server through wireless communication circuitry, identifying, using at least one processor, whether the application relocation is possible based on a running state of the application, in response to receiving the query message, when the application relocation is impossible, transmitting a first response message indicating that the application relocation is impossible to the external server, or when the application relocation is possible, transmitting a second response message indicating that the application relocation is possible to the external server.

A system and method for supplying on-premise hyper-converged systems uses a cloud service to receive orders for the on-premise hyper-converged systems from customers and to request a system integrator to procure hardware components of the on-premise hyper-converged systems and to assemble hardware components to produce assembled systems. Software components are remotely installed and configured in the assembled systems from the cloud service using bring-up appliances in virtual private clouds created for the on-premise hyper-converged systems to deploy software-defined data centers (SDDCs) in the on-premise hyper-converged systems. The resulting on-premise hyper-converged systems with the deployed SDDCs can then used by the customers.

Systems and methods are provided for facilitating a discreet connection between a user and a service. A first reverse proxy connection is configured to receive a connection from the user to set up the discreet connection, where an invitation indicating a mechanism for accessing the first reverse proxy connection is provided to the user. Access credentials are transmitted to the user over the first reverse proxy connection, the access credentials including an address for accessing a second reverse proxy connection, the first reverse proxy connection being deleted following delivery of the access credentials. The second reverse proxy connection facilitates the discreet connection between the user and the service without any detectable direct contact with the service.

Embodiments described herein provide for the leveraging of edge-based resources (e.g., processing, memory, storage, and/or other resources of one or more Multi-Access/Mobile Edge Computing devices (“MECs”), such as MECs associated with a radio access network (“RAN”) of a wireless network) to process data from and/or provide instructions to microcontroller devices, System on Chip (“SoC”) devices, configurable logic boards, Internet of Things (“IoT”) devices, and/or other types of devices or systems. For example, embodiments described herein may provide for the creation and configuration of logical devices or systems based on one or more microcontrollers, SoC devices, etc., edge-based processing of sensor data and/or other types of data received or generated by the microcontrollers, SoC devices, etc., and the generation of instructions to control physical devices communicatively coupled to the microcontrollers, SoC devices, etc.

Systems, machine-readable media, and methods may facilitate controlling use of a radio frequency band. A communication device of a set of communication devices may be communicated with, and device specifications may be collected. Device parameters corresponding to the communication device may be detected. The device parameters may include a specification of a location. A coexistence composite may be determined based on the device parameters. Specifications corresponding to the coexistence composite may be developed. At least part of the specifications of the coexistence composite may be communicated with a radio frequency allocation system. Consequent to the communicating with the radio frequency allocation system, a radio frequency assignment and operating parameters for the coexistence composite may be identified. The communication device may be controlled to access the radio frequency band in accordance with the radio frequency assignment and the operating parameters for the coexistence composite.

Systems, methods and computer software are disclosed for providing Multipath Transmission Control Protocol (MPTCP) with mesh access. A multi Radio Access Technology (RAT) base station gateway having a MPTCP proxy, proxies an initial MPTCP connection from a User Equipment (UE). The multi-RAT base station gateway determines if the UE is capable of MPTCP to provide MPTCP. When the UE is capable of MPTCP, then the multi-Rat base station provides a Wi-Fi connection and an LTE connection. When the UE is not capable of MPTCP, then the multi-RAT base station provides an LTE connection.

Techniques described herein include utilizing a mobile device as a proxy receiver for a vehicle in a V2X environment. In some embodiments, the mobile device may be configured to obtain vehicle and/or occupant metadata and store such data in memory at the mobile device. At a subsequent time, the mobile device may receive a V2X data message from a remote device (e.g., a V2X capable vehicle, another proxy device, a roadside unit, or any suitable device of the V2X environment that is different from the mobile device). The mobile device may process the data message based at least in part on the vehicle metadata and/or occupant metadata and perform one or more operations in response to processing the data message.

This application provides a method and an apparatus for selecting a session management network element. The mobility management network element may obtain the information about the one or more first session management network elements, and support to select a session management network element in a home routed mode or an enhanced topology mode.
